Adding Friends Can Make Me Stronger-Chapter 231

Chapter 231: “Sword of True Intent,” Eastern Sea Secret Technique, Fusion of Human and Monster

“Back in the Eastern Sea, I had already heard of your name. Upon leaving, my master instructed me to be particularly mindful of you,” Dongmen Xiangzhong said. “Come, let’s have a match. The winner will claim the second-tier divine flower.”

“You’re not my match,” Meng Changqing replied calmly, casting him a glance.

As a beast-controlling martial artist, that Thunder Jiao might well be his strongest trump card. However, the Thunder Jiao was ultimately not a true dragon, containing only a sliver of dragon blood. It wouldn’t withstand his sword, especially the Sword Twenty Four.

This was a technique he had poured considerable effort into, making it a top-tier skill even among the intermediate Heaven-grade techniques.

And as for Sword Twenty Five, it was also known as the “Sword of True Intent,” a high-tier Heaven-grade technique that only those with a true domain can activate.

In the month leading up to this trip to Central Province, he had already created it.

For now, though, no one had yet warranted its use.

Hearing this, Dongmen Xiangzhong’s face darkened.

Such arrogance!

To think that he, the former champion of the Eastern Sea, would be looked down upon, and by a younger warrior no less!

“Seems you misunderstand me,” he said, tossing his feather fan aside and rolling up his sleeves. “Do you think that Thunder Jiao is all I rely on?”

“So, what’s your point?” Meng Changqing looked at him.

“My point is, I, too… can fight just fine on my own!”

With that, a massive crystal palm appeared behind Dongmen Xiangzhong, spanning the sky — full tenfolds of palm intent!

“My heavens! Dongmen Xiangzhong has actually cultivated his palm intent to perfection!” many of the observing prodigies exclaimed in shock from afar.

It’s widely known that beast-controlling martial artists focus less on true intent and more on controlling beasts, with an emphasis on training their creatures.

However, it turned out Dongmen Xiangzhong’s personal true intent was equally refined, reaching full mastery.

This meant he was formidable in his own right and not solely dependent on his beasts!

“He’s hidden this well, with his true intent on par with Han Yuanzhen’s!” someone said. “If it weren’t for meeting Meng Changqing, Dongmen Xiangzhong might have concealed it all along and posed a threat to Han Yuanzhen later!”

The crowd murmured.

“Full true intent combined with the Thunder Jiao. This Southern Border champion may be in for a tough battle,” someone remarked.

Earlier, the Thunder Jiao hadn’t fully demonstrated its power, having been caught off guard. But now, it was two against one, and the advantage was theirs.

In their eyes, Meng Changqing’s strongest asset was merely his ten-tenths sword intent, which now seemed insufficient.

“What now?” Dongmen Xiangzhong asked, his eyes gleaming with confidence.

This true intent had been saved for Han Yuanzhen, but circumstances change, and he was forced to use it early. It was no matter, though; this person might even be as strong as Han Yuanzhen.

“Impressive, but still not enough,” Meng Changqing said, nodding slightly.

For a beast-controlling martial artist to have mastered full true intent was rare, but considering he was the previous champion, it was understandable.

“How brazen you are,” Dongmen Xiangzhong muttered with annoyance. “Let’s see if your words hold up in combat!”

With a roar, the Thunder Jiao’s body expanded, growing to a towering thousand meters, its immense form overwhelming.

Dongmen Xiangzhong leapt atop its head, forming hand seals and lighting a mysterious array beneath his feet.

“Profound Beast Control: Heavenly Monster Transformation!”

In the next instant, the top of the Thunder Jiao’s head rippled like water, merging with Dongmen Xiangzhong, fusing them together.

The Thunder Jiao’s body underwent a rapid transformation, taking on a humanoid form.

In mere moments, a colossal entity with a dragon’s head and human body, wielding a massive tail, stood tall, its jaws opening to emit an endless torrent of thunder.

“This technique was also meant for Han Yuanzhen,” Dongmen Xiangzhong’s voice echoed, sounding eerie, like a blend of man and beast. “Is this enough now?”

“A fusion of human and monster, huh,” Meng Changqing mused.

The Eastern Sea secret technique was indeed unique.

In this form, it combined a monster’s natural talents with martial skills, greatly enhancing his power.

“Certainly surprising, but as I said, it’s still not enough,” Meng Changqing replied as he began to draw upon his tenfold fist intent.

It seemed Dongmen Xiangzhong, a previous champion of the Eastern Sea, had no shortage of trump cards.

With tenfold true intent alone, it wouldn’t be easy to defeat him.

So be it. He would now use his newly perfected tenfold fist intent.

“Fine, let me see if your strength is truly enough to best me!” Dongmen Xiangzhong laughed, exasperated.

He had never encountered such arrogance!

The Heavenly Monster Transformation was the Eastern Sea’s top secret technique, blending the strengths of human and beast.

In this state, he could wield his own martial prowess along with the Thunder Jiao’s innate abilities, making him far stronger than before.

Even Han Yuanzhen couldn’t defeat him now!

But just as he finished speaking, an overwhelming aura erupted from Meng Changqing, a colossal crystal fist materializing, spanning the sky beside his soaring sword intent.

“How can this be?” Dongmen Xiangzhong’s face shifted, stunned beyond belief.
